The younger of my twin girls decided to crawl off grandmas bed and graze her nose on the carpet the wednesday before last.

Bigger sister decides I can do one better than that and rolls off the change table onto some tiles while grandma turned her back for a few seconds. Took that one to PMH and all is good thank god.

Worst of all though my baby GTR started blowing white smoke from the exhaust everytime i took the foot off the accelerator...maybe i shoulda just accelerated all the time....engine stops running a few minutes later, try to start it up again and the engine makes a wicked grinding noise.

Apart from all that its been a great last 2 weeks.

i got the same problem. . . blows white smoke everytime boost is on then you back off, but ive just rebuilt my motor and only been driving for a few days and the turbo has also been fully rebuilt. Its got me scratching my head why its doing it. . . also it still blows the dipstick out so its cable tied in. So dont think that your rings are gone straight away, there maybe another reason

Sam5709 car had an issue with blowing smoke and blowing the dip stick out. It was a slight split in the hose at the PCV? We changed the hose, and have not had a problem since...as far as im aware anyway :P

Not good Long! We will leave the suspension fix up for now :)

Goodluck and i hope it is nothing too major.

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
